Staff Product Manager, Vision

We are not solving a small problem, and we’re not addressing a small market. We are addressing significant issues faced by trillion-dollar industries that power the physical economy, including logistics, transportation, food & beverage, HVAC, construction, and oil & gas. These businesses continue to be the lifelines of our economy. The opportunity here is enormous, and you will have a massive impact.

We are seeking an experienced product manager to join our Product team, where you will be owning a suite of integrated, intelligent solutions for operators, fleets and partners. The role demands technical depth, principled thinking, a high bar for quality, structured communication, bold innovation, and a mentality of starting with the customer and working backwards. You will work alongside a star team from engineering, data science, computer vision, research & design, marketing, operations, legal, sales & customer success in a fast-paced, rapidly growing, technology environment to build intelligent experiences and drive ROI-positive impact for customers.

This role in particular requires a unique combination of strategic insight, technical acumen, and execution leadership to launch entirely new product lines for Motive.

• Develop new AI products that solve hard operational challenges across diverse verticals (e.g., waste services, construction, field services), driving the product line from conception to successful market launch (0-to-1)
• Own the entire product lifecycle, defining the long-term vision, strategy, and roadmap
• Conduct deep market and customer surveys to identify high-value, unmet operational needs uniquely solvable by Motive’s AI development capabilities
• Define clear, actionable product requirements for AI models, edge hardware integration, and software features, managing trade-offs with Engineering and AI teams.
• Lead the GTM strategy in partnership with Sales, Marketing, and Customer Success, developing positioning, pricing, and enablement materials necessary for rapid market adoption.
• Act as the primary voice of the customer and the market, deeply engaging with early adopter customers to validate prototypes, gather feedback, and ensure strong product-market fit.
• Cultivate a high-performing, collaborative team environment across Engineering, AI R&D, Design, and Operations, motivating and influencing teams without direct reporting authority to deliver exceptional results.
• Define and track key product and business metrics (e.g., model precision, recall, adoption rate, revenue) to measure the success of the new product line and inform subsequent investment decisions.

• 7+ years of experience with Product Management
• High customer empathy, with a desire to get in the shoes of our customers
• Have high “EQ”; be even-keeled, flexible, and able to quickly adapt to unexpected changes
• Proven experience in delivering commercially successful software products
• Be data-driven; you regularly seek out and use hard data and metrics to back up assumptions and opinions
• You are comfortable and confident sharing your thoughts in verbal or written form. You can engage constructively in debate and discussion with different personality types and seniority levels.
• You are a trailblazer who is humble, kind, and open to learning new stuff. You can take a stand yet commit even when you disagree. You have a strong bias to action (aka hustle) and are not afraid to get your hands dirty.
• Have enough technical knowledge to enough to gain the respect of engineers
• Experience working effectively with remote/offshore teams
